If he goes to.the website of the relevant exam board for each subject, there will be past papers, marking schemes, examiners' reports etc, as well as the specification.

Thank you for your reply. Other than those past papers. Is there any other books for preparation?

AQA:

Edexcel:

OCR:

WJEC (go to Science, then look in each subject area):

https://www.wjec.co.uk/qualifications/
https://www.wjec.co.uk/qualifications/m ... _resources

Whichever the exam board, you need the 'approved' material for that board, as the wording can be quite specific in the sciences, even within the same topics.

Has your DS asked his teachers to recommend any extra resources? That would be my starting point, I think.
